Dang LeAugust 28, 2014If you've ever had Halal Guys from NYC (Which should be on EVERYONE'S food bucket list)….this place is satisfactory and will somewhat satisfy your burning desires and cravings for the original.
Social News NetworkAugust 14, 2013Halal Bros is one of the most amazing and unique places I have come across in Austin. Their specialty is chicken over rice. Do try their Falafal wrap as well. You can also find Halal Guys in New York!
Nicolas LerouxJune 24, 2013Yeah, the falafel over rice was absolutely excellent. I asked for the sauce on the side and I poured it on my meal and it was excellent. Best middle eastern food I've ever had in west campus.
Sam MelnickApril 28, 2016Falafel is fantastic. Hummus is smooth and tasty. And the basmati rice is incredible!
Alex GarciaAugust 21, 2016The fries and hummus are amazing! Had the beef shawarma wrap, and it was pretty good.
LisaOctober 17, 2014Combination over rice FTW!! I like them better than the original Halal Guys in NYC to be honest!
HoomanFebruary 4, 2015Delicious food. However expect little meat portions, and expect to wait at least 15 minutes for your food to get ready at lunch hour.
Vincent HarrisSeptember 10, 2013Lamb over rice is where it's at y'all. Say hey to Mohammed (the owner) . He's a badass.
The beef shawarma was delicious, both in a wrap and over rice!
Jezzika ChungSeptember 2, 2013Came at 2pm, and it took them 25 minutes to get my food to go!!!!! I saw people come and leave before me, and I reminded them twice. Love the food, but they need a better ordering system.
Noor NahasApril 20, 2013Pretty cheap and you get a decent amount of food but simply being Halal doesn't make your food good. You're better off getting food at Kismet and avoiding the silly "red and white sauce" food meme.
The fountain drink cups are TINY and cost $1.69 so be ready for frequent refills.
- Victor GJanuary 11, 2015Worst place and worst customer service. Called in an order, they gave me the wrong food, then tried to make drive 20 minutes back to them in the freezing cold to verify when I had pictures of it! BAD!
- The meals served over rice are extremely large and extremely salty.
YembzDecember 27, 2013the food here is sooo good, but my friend and i both suffered from terrible stomachaches for the rest of the day after eating here. stay away if you have a sensitive stomach!
Alberto ZavalaOctober 23, 2022Había querido probar estos bowls desde hace mucho y la verdad es que fue lo que esperaba. El plato de shawarma de cordero muy rico y todo por 13 dólares.

"This has been a favorite of ours for years. So many tasty Mediterranean offerings plus great pizzas and even chicken wings. It's family owned, and they treat me like family. Go!"

"Swing by for Mediterranean specialties, but make sure you don't leave without trying their homemade breaks and baklava. We also recommend the Zatar Bread."
